Piccadilly Slant-Abraham's Cove

Piccadilly Slant-Abraham's Cove is a local service district and designated place in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador.

[1] According to the local population, the Abraham's Cove site was first settled in the late 19th century by the Duffey family, of mixed Acadian and Mi'kmaq ancestry.

With the increasing scarcity of commercial fish, many residents found employment in the nearby Ernest Harmon US AFB in Stephenville, which operated from 1941 to 1966, or at the provincial highways depot.

Today, very few local residents still engage in fishing, and many men and women seek seasonal employment elsewhere in the province or in Nova Scotia.

It was known for showing very old, black and white movies during the winter months while warming its clientele with a wood-burning stove.
